Under the twilight, Xianyang City is shrouded in a holy light, like a golden city in the east, standing tall among the mountains. Under the reflection of Weishui, it is really beautiful.

Ying Si stood on a high platform, like a master overlooking all beings, looking at everything in the world, like the remnant sun in the west, he was the emperor of the east.

"What time is it?"

He didn't look back, and the person behind him replied, "Back to the king, the first year of the twelfth month of the third year." ”

With a playful smile, Ying Si said again: "December 30...... In that case, tomorrow will be January of the first year of the first year, right? ”

"Exactly."

“…… Delay, be responsible! ”

Zhu Liji hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, since Zhaoyun has contributed to my Great Qin, why don't you offset the merits?" Although a one-day delay is only a whipping and a fine, it is not good-looking after all......

"I am very happy that the envoy of Qi came to the court before, because Zhaoyun has made a great contribution! But Zhang Yi wouldn't let me reward him...... Why? Because he made his own decisions, he ruined the military strategy of my Qin State! If this kind of person still wants to be rewarded, then won't the courtiers of the Qin State make their own decisions in the future, so am I the king or you are the king of this Great Qin? ”

Yuli hurriedly bowed his head and said, "The king is angry." ”

Ying Si shook her head: "I'm not angry—but Brother Xian, in the same way, Shang Ying was a scholar back then, and it was not easy for the Qin people to trust me Qin Fa; If the charter is broken today because of Zhaoyun, a foreigner, can Qin Law still have any majesty in the future? ”

"I'm ashamed, the king has a lot of worries, and he can't do it!"

"Hahahaha!" This sentence directly amused Yingsi, "Disease, disease, if I, Daqin, talk about resourcefulness, who would dare to be your right?" I know you care about that stinky boy, don't worry, as long as you help him pay the fine, I will intimidate him and spare him the crime of delay! ”

He was overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted: "The king is wise! However, His Majesty has ordered Wei Ran to go to Hangu Pass, and I believe that there will be news of him in the near future! ”

"The matter of cutting Shu is not in a hurry for the next two days, the main thing is to have a long memory with him!" Ying Si paused, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Disease, you said that Zhaoyun and Wei Ran, who will be the pillars of my Great Qin in the future?" ”

Zhu Li was stunned for a moment, why did Xin Dao Yingsi suddenly talk about this? But in his heart, Zhaoyun was naturally stronger, so he said: "Your Majesty, according to the ministers, Zhaoyun Xiao Wei Ran is young and promising at the age of ten, and he will seek Bashu for my Great Qin and join Eastern Qi, and in the long run, there will definitely be more achievements!" In my opinion, he is the pillar of my Great Qin in the future! ”

“…… Is that what you think? Hehe, sure enough, ...... with Zhang Yi"

Zhu Li's heart tightened, could it be that he and Zhang Yi said differently?

“…… is exactly the same as Zhang Yi! ”

Belch......

Zhu Li was stunned, how could he and Zhang Yi be in the same angle in this matter?

But looking at Yingsi's appearance, he didn't seem to be satisfied, and he was puzzled, and asked tentatively: "Is the king ...... Think Wei Ran is my pillar of Great Qin? ”

Yingsi didn't answer, but changed the topic and talked about the temperament of the two: "Disease, Zhaoyun is young and doesn't know the height of the sky, and he doesn't know humility when he is in a high position, and it will be a big disaster in the long run!" Moreover, this man is so empty and does not do practical things, you see that he seems to be very meritorious, but in my eyes...... Usual! ”

On the other hand, Wei Ran, although he is a relative, started from the bottom and was down-to-earth, so that he has today's position. Moreover, I have heard that he is a late-night sleeper, and he loves to learn what he does not know, and this is the only learning ability...... Zhaoyun didn't, because he felt that his head was full and he didn't have to study anymore! ”

Zhu Li listened quietly, and suddenly found that Yingsi's analysis made a lot of sense. They only cared about the benefits of Zhaoyun's remarks, but they never found that it was just empty theory, and when it did not achieve its actual goal, it was just a piece of paper after all.

It is not wrong to say that he is in a high position and does not know humility; Who dare to insult one of the kings in front of the kings of the Three Kingdoms? Not to mention scolding others to death directly?

He is too self-righteous, which seems to be his instinct as a traverser; He felt that his knowledge was 2,000 years ahead of these ancients, so he didn't know awe!

If you don't know awe, sooner or later you will suffer!

After such a little bit of Yingsi, compared with the two, it seems that Wei Ran is easier to shoulder the big responsibility!

"But if that's the case, Zhaoyun's status will ...... in the future"

Yingsi shook her head: "He is still young, and there are still many possibilities; Maybe he can realize that this is gradually changing, or maybe he can only do nothing for the rest of his life; Or...... He will become very scary, and a person's arrogance is often because he has arrogant capital......"

"I see, the king's view is far away, and the subordinates can't do it!"

Looking at the eyes of the disease, Yingsi smiled and said: "Disease, in terms of resourcefulness, I may not be as good as you; In terms of tongue, I may not be as good as Zhang Yi; But if you look at people, neither of you will be my opponent! ”

Yingsi, who is in her thirties, has a spicy look in her eyes, and she doesn't know when she started practicing.

"Hehe, the king is good at observing, only then can I have the power of Daqin today!" I didn't forget to make a sycophant at this time.

This sycophant is just right, not numb or greasy, and is deeply liked by Yingsi. He smiled and said, "The sun is going down, why don't you stay and eat?" ”

"No."

It is the honor of a courtier to eat with the king, not to mention that Yingsi and he are a family, and there is no reason to refuse.

In a few moments, the feast came up; The two of them were half-drunk, and suddenly heard someone come to report: "Your Majesty, Lieutenant Wei Ran led the doctor Zhaoyun to ask to see him outside the palace!" ”

"Oh?"

As soon as these words came out, Ying Si and Zhu Li were directly stunned, but after a moment, Ying Si laughed: "Hahaha! This kid really knows how to choose the time and come back on the last day! Come on, prepare two more tables for the banquet! ”

Zhu Lijian also smiled and said: "It seems that the king wants to take a fine from his subordinates to expand the treasury today, I'm afraid it's no fun!" ”

"You don't care about this money, but the widow doesn't care about it! When the Bashu is broken, the population and food in Shu are the most important wealth for the widows! ”

While the two were talking, the chamberlain had already led Wei Ran and Zhaoyun to the main hall; Before Yingsi could ask questions, Zhaoyun had already knelt down on one knee and apologized: "I am afraid of it, and it is a capital crime to let the king wait for such a long time!" ”

Ying Si thought that Zhaoyun would be very proud that he had caught up on the last day, but he didn't expect that this guy still knew how to admit his mistakes and be teachable, at least the scolding he spit on his lips could only be swallowed silently.

"In the period of March, one day is not more, one day is not less, what is the sin? Get up! ”

"King Xie!"

Zhaoyun got up slowly, and Yingsi said to Wei Ran again: "Back and forth to Hanguguan, you should be tired, it just so happens that I have ordered someone to set up a banquet, what words do you have, chat while eating." ”

Wei Ran was much more than Teacher Zhaoyun, and hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty doesn't dare!" ”

"It's okay, none of the people here today are outsiders, just talk as a family...... Zhaoyun, don't go, I'm going to talk to you about papermaking! ”

The two did not dare to refuse, so they had to sit down; And Yingsi really didn't ask a word about what happened after Zhaoyun came out of the customs, and what he said was about papermaking.

Zhaoyun was surprised to find that it turned out that Qin had begun large-scale paper production two months ago; Such efficiency alone is not comparable to that of other countries. I am afraid that in less than half a year, when the paper is completely opened, a steady stream of funds will flow into Xianyang.

But for some reason, Ying Si didn't mention the crusade against Shu.

Zhaoyun couldn't sit still a little, and hurriedly asked during the gap: "When is the king going to enter Shu?" ”

Ying Si put down her chopsticks and said: "If you enter Shu, you must pass through Nanzheng, Nanzheng is the territory of Chu, if it is broken, you must divide your troops to resist the reinforcements of Chu from Yongdi; But if this is the case, I am afraid that the troops in Shu are not enough, so it is quite a dilemma, although Gan Mao has a plan, but the soldiers of Yongdi are not weak people, and they dare not take it lightly. ”

"Perhaps...... I'll be preparing for a while! ”
